What the law says

Excerpts of the law are reproduced in their official French version; the explanation that follows is translated.

Loi sur l'immigration et la protection des réfugiés (L.C. 2001, ch. 27), art. 91 (2) a)
« Sont soustraites à l'application du paragraphe (1) les personnes suivantes : a) les avocats qui sont membres en règle du barreau d'une province et les notaires qui sont membres en règle de la Chambre des notaires du Québec; »

Only a lawyer, a notary or a licensed consultant may, for a fee, advise or represent a person on an immigration application. Me Guillaume Phaneuf is a lawyer and a member of the Barreau du Québec: he is the representative declared to IRCC for your file.

Official text on Laws of Canada (Justice Canada)
Règlement sur les consultants en immigration (RLRQ, c. I-0.2.1, r. 1), art. 4
« Le présent règlement ne s'applique pas à un membre en règle de la Chambre des notaires du Québec ou du Barreau du Québec ou à une personne qui est titulaire d'une autorisation spéciale délivrée en vertu de l'article 42.4 du Code des professions (chapitre C-26) par un de ces ordres et lui permettant d'exercer les activités visées par le présent règlement. »

Before the Québec immigration ministry (MIFI), a lawyer of the Barreau du Québec may represent you without consultant recognition; the lawyer is declared through Mandate of Representation A-0525-AF.
